This trick explains how to obtain foster sows for the adoptions.
We need to know, at all moments, which amount of feed are the sows eating, so we will weigh the feed at least once per week.
This system does not provide an improvement in the production data, but a saving in energy costs and a better use of the resources in general.
The use of these nests help create two well-differentiated areas: a warmer one for the piglets and a cooler one for the sows.
